| HOW TO MAKE
LARA CROFT AND THE TEMPLE OF OSIRIS STAFF BY SARA CROFT |
Reference: The staff seems to be a winged scarab with an ankh on
top and acting as a handle.
 |
What you need:
- A long wooden stick of some sort
like a broom stick or a long dowel
- Foamboard
- Craft foam
- Gold Spray paint
- Polymer Clay or Air dry clay
- Paper
- Hot glue gun and glue sticks
|
Start by printing the top part of the staff on your regular piece
of A4 paper, but make it as big as it could possibly be on the A4 paper.
 |
Then tape it to a piece of foamboard and
cut out the outline and the hole inside like so
 |
Now cover the entire thing with craft foam to give it a nice
clean finish
 |
Using the remnants of the template, cut the the ankh part out of
more foamboard.
 |
Then glue it to the first main piece like so:
 |
Using regular paper, fold 8 inch pieces it like so and glue them
on the main piece
 |
Start by placing the first piece of paper on the top corner and
cut the excess off with scissors once it dries
 |
Keep doing this and try to follow the picture below
 |
There should be six pieces of paper all together
 |
Make a scarab out of polymer clay or air dry clay (see tutorial
here) and glue it on the space inside the ankh, if you make it 2.5 inches long
it should fit perfectly if you made the main piece based on an A4 piece of paper
 |
Glue the stick / broom on the main piece or tape it up if it's
too heavy
 |
Spray paint the entire thing with gold spray paint.
 |
And you're done! you can add extra coats of modge podge to
strengthen it, but if you did this right, the staff should be very sturdy.
